auto-running before the ground hits feet
we’re running down the time on the dial
(cruise control, take it slow, setting attainable goals)
the sun fixed in corners, on the cube screen
dodging the bog down, collecting cherries
(three, two, one, go now, no more hesitating)
running in place the place passes scrolls fast
yeah we’re in the pipes, plumbers unite
(utilize, pennywise, pocket-size)
now in my dark room, do your lights go out too?
(lead me to the glow of the crucible with eyes closed until there’s a reason to peak)
sublime peace of no mind
(fumbling for a valve to drain remnant fowl of…)
or phantom feeling all of the hands that have ever contorted you
cherry collect
cherry collect
running in case the place passes scrolls past
yeah we’re in the pipes, plumbers unite
(maximize, all the time, realize)
you, without voltage, have you a single thought? of me
(my efforts had been spent recoiling your ascent through a labyrinth absent of ceiling or floors)
goodbye, i’ll forget you and leave you where you lie
(attempts to keep your pace stuck my feet of clay into a kiln, i can’t call it when i should)
you never really go to sleep
never really lose your streak
never rest your feet
(always more in queue, let alone my groove, i will not stop without the highest score)
you never stop to patch the leaks
and it’s corroding everything
(tomorrow i can change, today i need my things, i need all my things, i need all my things, i need all my things
to get the job done, to get the job done)
we are the pipes the tubes of the city
throw a wrench in me

The great underlying instrumentation paired with Florence's droll stream of consciousness lyrics make this album stand out. It feels so personal and confessional. Favorite tracks are Strong Feelings and Leafy. I've heard Scratchard Lanyard on alt radio and love that one as well. tofupotpie

Dirtbag Transformation: "What is this?" was my first reaction. But what an amazing song. It reminds me a bit of the Pixies in how it pulls together dissonance and then resolves. malfunction54
